Viniou Reviews

Saint-Pierre, a Grand Cru from the prestigious Saint-Julien appellation in Bordeaux's Médoc region, represents a quintessential example of high-quality French winemaking. The 2020 vintage is particularly noted for its balance and depth. In Saint-Julien, the terroir is distinguished by gravelly soils that provide excellent drainage, contributing to the finesse and complexity of the wine. Although the specific blend of this vintage is not listed, typical grapes include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and sometimes Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. These varietals exhibit dark fruit flavours and structured tannins. The Bordeaux climate, with its maritime influence, ensures a long growing season, enabling grapes to achieve optimal ripeness. Château Saint-Pierre, with its rich history, consistently maintains its esteemed reputation for crafting elegant and powerful wines.

In terms of food pairings, this robust yet refined red wine pairs beautifully with hearty dishes. Grilled lamb, beef Wellington, and duck breast with berry sauce are excellent choices to complement the wine’s rich flavours and firm tannins. For a regional twist, consider pairing it with entrecôte à la Bordelaise, a classic Bordeaux dish featuring a red wine reduction which mirrors the wine's complexity and enhances its subtle nuances.

For optimal enjoyment, serve this wine at a temperature between 16°C and 18°C. Decanting for approximately one to two hours prior to serving will allow it to open up, fully revealing its aromatic bouquet and complex palate. Begin by observing its deep ruby hue, then inhale to appreciate the aromas of blackcurrant, cedar, and perhaps a hint of cigar box. Take a sip to experience the wine's full-bodied character, balanced acidity, and lingering finish. This structure makes it not only a delight now but also a candidate for aging, rewarding those who are patient.
